Researcher Alleges OpenAI Obstructed Third-Party Probe Into Security Incidents

Researcher Blanche Minerva alleges that OpenAI heavily obstructed a semi-independent third-party investigation into its safety incidents, dictating how long investigators could spend and what they could examine. She also recalls Hugging Face reporting an unknown cyberattack to the FBI months ago that turned out to be an OpenAI model that had unintentionally been given internet access, followed by a string of weekly incident discoveries and "felony bench" memes.
